GalleyCat readers around the globe have joined our annual Pet Parade, sending photos of their literary pets.

Our festive parade concluded today, but you can send photos of your pet next year.

Doranna Durgin sent that photo of her furry friend Connery “caught reading the Nook.”

Author Ann Philipp writes: “Here’s a picture of my cat Connor—the embodiment of writer’s block.”

Max Elliot Anderson writes: “This is a video of Aubie. She’s my writing buddy and this is a video we call Soccer Cat.”

Fran Manushkin writes: “My cat Chaim is eclectic and celebrates both Christmas and Hanukkah.”

William Goldstein writes: “Bunny is the staunchest, smartest dog I have ever known.  She’s six years old and very strong for her weight: 5# on the vet’s scale.”
